Maybe the 9-11 conspiracy theorists are not so crazy after all.

In the early 1960s, America's top military leaders reportedly drafted plans to kill innocent people and commit acts of terrorism in U.S. cities to create public support for a war against Cuba.

Code named Operation Northwoods, the plans reportedly included the possible assassination of Cuban émigrés, sinking boats of Cuban refugees on the high seas, hijacking planes, blowing up a U.S. ship, and even orchestrating violent terrorism in U.S. cities.

The plans were developed as ways to trick the American public and the international community into supporting a war to oust Cuba's then new leader, communist Fidel Castro.

I have rejected the idea that 9-11 was orchestrated by our government, not so much because I do not believe this administration capable of anything so horrific (The things that I know they have done are frightening enough), but mostly because Osama Bin Laden did not deny his culpability.

I cannot imagine that a man like Bin Laden would allow our government to scapegoat him and his organization like that. But other then that I am not at all positive that this administration would not have gone to the extremist of actions to get the war that they clearly wanted all along.

But it is more likely that if our government had planned the attack they would have made sure that the hijackers were identified as Saddam Hussein's men and not Bin Laden's.

But this report should give everyone pause and make them really wonder just how many lies and deceptions our government has fed us over the years.

    Saddam Hussein did not deny the weapons of mass destruction charge for the longest time (did he ever admit they didn't have them?) because he wanted to look like more of a threat to Iran. Perhaps bin Laden is using the same reasoning, preferring to look stronger than he is to the other islamic groups out there.
